Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years agoA. If u have been giving semi solid food so far slowly change the texture. The child won't be able to suddenly move to solids. You should slowly change the texture otherwise he will be very much used to it that he will start refusing anything in solid form. Keep blending the food but don't blend it completely. Reduce the blending time so that the food is kind of pureed but not completely. Once he gets accustomed to it reduce the blending again so the food is coarse and not completely pureed. Take it slowly. Then introduce small solids which he can manage.
